Metamerism in Insects: Metamerism in insects is the division of the body into a series of similar repeating segments called metameres. Each metamere has its own set of organs and appendages, which allows insects to be highly specialized and efficient. The number of metameres in an insect varies depending on the species. For example, adult cockroaches have…
